+# Proposal: About
+
+`bsbr` is designed as a backup and restore tool that completly relies on
+btrfs formated filesystems.
+It takes advantage of the btrfs snapshot functionality and combines it
+with management functionality of snapper.
+
+`bsbr` creates backups as btrfs-snapshots on a selectable target device.
+Plug in and mount any btrfs-formatted device to your system. Supported devices
+may be either local USB drives, but can be as well remote accessible RAID drives.
+If possible the backup process will send incremental snapshots to the target drive.
+If the snapshot will be stored on a remote host, it is secured with ssh.
+
+`bsbr` will support interactive and time scheduled backup runs.
+
+# Proposal: Structure
+
+* bsbr        - gui component
+* bsbrctl     - commandline component
+* bsbr-snap   - snapshot given btrfs subvolume
+* bsbr-clone  - archive/clone a given btrfs subvolume
+* bsbr-restor - restore selected files from given snapshot to selectable destination
